The simulation of additively manufactured (AM) Polylactic Acid (PLA) tensile specimen is discussed. The procedure of evolution and use of a material definition for finite element simulation (FEA) of Polylactic Acid (PLA) printing is discussed, [...]

Cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) are perhaps the only type of cellulose nanomaterials that have the potential for both large volume production and large volume applications in near future. Much research has been conducted on the production, [...]

Alba-Technic, LLC and the University of Maine are developing an automated small batch manufacturing system that streamlines both the customization and manufacture of a protective headgear designed for aesthetic appeal and comfort by using advanced [...]

Technologies to produce cellulose nanofibrils via either mechanical means (CNF) or chemical means (cellulose nanocrystals (CNC)) have improved dramatically over recent years and a limited number of companies and research labs can produce cellulose nanofibrils [...]
